Warning
！
·Improper running-in of tyres can cause tyres to skid and run out of control.
·Be extra careful when you have new tyres. For proper running-in of tyres as described in
this chapter, it is required to avoid great acceleration, sharp turning and slamming on the brakes
during the first 50km.
Avoid driving at a constant low speed
Driving a motorcycle at a constant low speed (light load) will overwear and overheat parts
and components and affect their running-in. To let the engine accelerate freely, the acceleration
speed may not exceed the specified maximum. However, don’t speed up the motorcycle to the
maximum for the initial 1000km.
Let the oil warm up before driving
Before loading the engine, let the cold or hot engine idle for about 30 seconds to 1 minute,
so that the lubricating oil has enough time to lubricate the engine parts.
Carry out the initial important maintenance
The initial 1000km maintenance is the most important maintenance a motorcycle should
receive. During the running-in period, all the engine parts will run in and all the other parts will
fit into place. All adjustments must be remade and all fasteners be tightened, and dirty oil should
be replaced.
The initial 1000 km timely maintenance will guarantee the best performance and the
longest life of the engine.
Remark
：
The initial 1000km maintenance should be the most important maintenance in this manual.
Special attention should be paid to the attentions and warnings in the maintenance schedule.
